Budget alternative to Molly-Mae’s luxe £1k coffee machine nearly half price

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Love Island’s Molly-Mae Hague whipped up her fans on Instagram as she unboxed her luxury Sage coffee machine, called the Barista Touch.

It promises to provide barista quality coffees for a hefty price tag of £1,049.95 through the Sage website directly. While some Black Friday deals has slashed this price by £250, some budget alternatives can also offer Brits similar coffees at home as their favourite reality star without a 4-figure cost.

Philips’ latest espresso machine, Barista Brew, offers similar coffee-making experiences. Molly-Mae’s luxury item is an all-in-one coffee machine that comes with its own milk frother, a personal-use grinder that dispenses the perfect amount of coffee for your chosen beverage, which you select through the single-touch LED touchscreen display.

It also boasts Sage’s ThermoJet heating system to achieve perfect extraction temperature and an automatic milk frother that allows you to personalise the temperature and texture.
